ROLE — SECURITY PATROL 🔦
SECURITY PATROL
welcome, crewmate shu.
Early in the day on TUESDAY, Shu will hear the familiar ping of the I.R.I.S. at his wrist; the moment that he lifts up his hand to check what the noise is for, a window immediately pops up. The projection fills in a spread of blue, and a message sent only to his designation loads in the window.
I have something of a job for you. Pick a location to set up an off-network camera, to catch anything in the area; if the system is going to pull a stunt on us again, we can certainly work smarter, not harder.
If it does, meet me in the morning after the lockdown ends. I've updated some of your credentials so you should be able to get up before anyone else. We can go get the camera, maybe squeeze in a second location before we have to lock down everything and everyone's awake.

ADRASTEA
Come FRIDAY, early in the morning, a message notification sounds again. It's loud enough that it rouses him from a very groggy sleep before anyone else. No one else even twitches at the sound or the blue light, and there's nobody in the halls the moment Shu steps outside, so might as well head to the location that pops up - right?
It indicates where Shu needs to go to meet Adrastea. The walk there is eerie, and lit only by the emergency lights of the ship - a sickly, golden orange in a strip that barely brightens the dark corners. The senior officer can be found easily there, spinning something almost absently around one finger, the other hand cupping their elbow. Once Shu is close enough, they stop spinning the item in their possession and instead toss it at him for him to catch.
It's a flashlight, one with a strap on the end. Huh. Pretty useful, considering the darkness that surrounds them.
Adrastea taps a flashlight of their own against their shoulder, something serious but enigmatic in their filtered voice as their helmet remains blank, only a faint, cool blue glow just barely visible from within. "Let's go."

RULES
As the role responsible for security patrols, along with the information that is acquired on patrol, Shu is expected to follow a few rules:
1. For now, keep your new designation a secret. Should this designation be shared with anyone without prior authorization, consequences and termination of position are possible. This can be revisited at a later date.
↳ As of w2, you can share your role with ONE non-role person.
2. You may use your knowledge during trial to guide, suggest, or prioritize investigations. If you otherwise distribute any information acquired, it must be done anonymously or without referencing the true source. This can be revisited at a later date.
3. Each week, Security Patrol can do the following:
📹 A. one location can be chosen on Tuesday; this location is where the role can place a video camera, completely separate from the Eudora's system, which is tamperproof and will remain hidden until retrieved.
↳ As of w3, you can place TWO cameras in separate locations.
🔎 B. a second location can be chosen Friday, with two chances to pick again if your choice doesn't get a hit; this is the location which can be investigated before the curfew lockdown is lifted and crime scenes are marked restricted areas prior to being locked down.
Currently, junior crew capsules require a valid explanation as to why you want to check or monitor them, and senior crew capsules are off limits. Anywhere else that has been unlocked on the Eudora is fair game.
4. While patrolling on Friday before lockdown lifts, 1 piece of evidence can be retrieved from the location that you visit. Choose wisely.
↳ As of w3, there is a chance to increase this to TWO pieces of evidence depending on the investigation.
☠️ If Security Patrol finds a dead body, this does not count towards the pieces of evidence that can be retrieved, regardless of whether it's physically located or found in their video log. Adrastea will ensure that the body is brought to trial first thing to give the crew a head start.
5. Once you have completed your patrol, you can choose whether to share the recording (if there is one) anonymously on the public network. If you share it privately, the source of it cannot be revealed at this time.

I'm looking into whether I can grab another camera like the first two, while we're here, but too many of them have software that would sync up with the ship's system. [ nyeh. but she closes her I.R.I.S. and sighs. ] We'll see what winds up happening, but considering your luck so far? I'll be a little optimistic, for once, that we'll continue to catch something.

[ she spoke it into existence. ]
We have a bit of time if I don't find something straight away on the Friday, right? We can always see if something comes up on the camera and move to the most logical place from there.

pats his cheek. ]
You have a good instinct for it. I'll keep betting on this horse, rather than let you make me think I've jinxed our luck.
[ anyways ]
We do, yes. We might only have an hour before the rest of the crew is up and moving, but I can take you through shortcuts if we need to get somewhere fast.

he is cheek patted. ]
We'll see.
Good to know, at least. There's a few places I could see being an issue this week. [ fellas is it nice to be told by a pretty lady you have an instinct for where people murder and are murdered? ("shu literally kills people") not important. ]

Mega Park will be the biggest issue. [ she shifts and gets comfortable next to him, doing that thing cats do where they're almost close enough to touch against a person, because they're clearly content to be in the same space, but are being cats about it. ] I wouldn't be surprised if we saw more overlap, like we did at the spa.
If they cause problems in hydroponics and life support, that... will be troubling. [ for obvious reasons that are more than murder. whatever about the murder. ]
Some of us were talking about reaching out to Venus Vespertine to ask if she would be able to keep us for a little longer, just to see if we can't stay off-ship Thursday. If the ship's autopilot leaves without us, so be it, but maybe being off the Eudora will make some difference.

It's huge and I'm pretty sure a lot of people will choose to sleep somewhere there. [ which reminds me, kazuki asked about if the people in the location were cleared so now i'm like hm how do get around this. ] If only for the dogs.
... [ ah. ] Do you not have a back up?
I doubt people will hate the idea of staying at the hotel for another night, provided she says yes. Wonder if there's a way to flat out barracade the life support. [ BECAUSE IT'S US. SOMEONE'S GONNA FIGHT IN THE HYDROPONICS AND LIFE SUPPORT. ]
[ he's jsut gonna.
drink. here we go again. ]
